3-D ultrasound guidance of autonomous robot for location of ferrous shrapnel. IEEE transactions on ultrasonics, ferroelectrics, and frequency control [IEEE Trans Ultrason Ferroelectr Freq Control] Journal article | | Title | 3-D ultrasound guidance of autonomous robot for location of ferrous shrapnel. | | Author(s) | Rogers AJ, Light ED, Smith SW | | Institution | Duke University, Biomedical Engineering Department, Durham, NC. | | Source | IEEE Trans Ultrason Ferroelectr Freq Control 2009; 56(7):1301-1303. | | Abstract | Vibrations can be induced in ferromagnetic shrapnel by a variable electromagnet. Real time 3-D color Doppler ultrasound located the induced motion in a needle fragment and determined its 3-D position in the scanner coordinates. This information was used to guide a robot which moved a probe to touch the shrapnel fragment. | | Language | ENG | | Pub Type(s) | JOURNAL ARTICLE
